My grandparents came to this country and fought very hard for what they had. It would be a shame for this to end, we need to pass this down to the next generation

I grew up on plough road and would love to be able to give something back to the community that helped me to become the man that I am today.

Honour The Elders that raised a community without racism. Local residents of this generation are so disconnected from the cultural history of Lara and the local area.
